Frequently asked questions

What are Lab-Grown Diamonds?

Lab-Grown Diamonds are real diamonds — same crystal structure, same hardness (10 Mohs), same optical properties as mined diamonds. They are grown in a controlled environment rather than extracted from the earth. Every Lab-Grown Diamond in our main collection is graded the same way as a mined stone: cut, color, clarity, and carat.
What are cognac diamonds?

Cognac diamonds are natural fancy color diamonds in the C5–C7 range of the Argyle color scale. The deep amber-orange color is formed by structural graining inside the crystal during geological formation over billions of years. It is a natural characteristic, not a treatment.
Are cognac diamonds lab-grown or natural?

Every diamond in the Brownstone Collection is a natural, mined diamond. Its warm color comes from the stone’s own crystal structure, formed in the earth, and is never treated or enhanced.
Where is Black Pearl of Queens jewelry made?

Every piece is handcrafted in our workshop in Queens, New York City. Made to order in your size and metal after you place your order.
How long does production take?

7-10 business days from order confirmation. All pieces ship free, fully insured, in our signature pouch. For rush orders contact 929-806-1502.

Six metals: Modern Electrum™ (a tarnish-resistant silver alloy, from $200), 14K brown gold (our signature Brownstone alloy), 14K yellow gold, 14K white gold, 14K rose gold, and platinum. Every metal is solid — no plating, no gold-fill. What is Modern Electrum?
What is the price range?

Modern Electrum™ pieces: from $200. Main collection Lab-Grown Diamond pieces: $310–$2,700. Brownstone Collection (natural diamonds): $595–$3,495. Real stones and solid gold throughout both diamond tiers.
